Day 70/6 Foster Home Shuffle

As I'm sure you all will agree there were a lot of fosters in our house to take care of. As much as we want to help as many four legged friends as possible so that I fulfill my wish, there's only so much room in our house and time in the day, but there is always enough love to give. Thankfully another foster home came forward and said that they would take Sookie and her kittens.  They were always supposed to be a temporary fosters until a permanent foster home became availalble and the timing was perfect. Sookie and her kittens went to another foster home last night.

Here's one last look at Sookie's cute little babies



Dahlia and Rose went to another foster home on Saturday. The main foster parent in that house is a teenage girl and Mom said it was great to see such a responsible young lady stepping up and helping out. Plus Dahlia and Rose are going to be so spoiled!

In case you've lost track that leaves us with Violet and Lily, Lola and Roxy as our fosters.  Lola and Roxy are settling in quite well.  They went to the AARCS event in Chestermere on Saturday and were very, very excited by all the activity. It took them a lot of time to settle down but by the end of the event they were pretty good. They've been at a kennel for the past 3 months so they've got some energy to burn and it's unlikely they've been around a lot of people during that time. Overall Mom thought they did pretty good.

On Sunday Lola, Roxy and I went to the Mini Mutts meet up. Mom was a bit unsure how Roxy was going to react as she was very excited, barking and pulling on her leash when she saw another dog on Saturday. She did fantastic! Far better than Mom thought she would.  There was no barking, no fear or too much excitement being around all the other dogs from either Roxy or Lola.

Here's Roxy making some new friends.












Surprisingly Lola was one of the first dogs to lie down. I guess two days of social outings was more than she could handle.










I almost forgot to mention that Lily has an adoption application! There is a lady coming to see her tonight. She's also going to see Dahlia and Rose. I'd be happy if any of the three kittens get adopted since Dahlia and Rose still seem like they are our foster kittens.  Stay tuned to see if one of them gets adopted!

  1. Oh my goodness! Roxy and Lola are ADORABLE!! I love them already haha

    This is Sam, the mom from the family who adopted Alley (who we call Khaleesi now, which means Queen so we think it's very suiting!). I just wanted to thank you for all the hard work you do!

    1. Rupert says you are welcome...although he doesn't have to clean the litter boxes so he doesn't really know where all the hard work happens!

      Marigold's new name is Khaleesi also. I didn't know it meant Queen, but it seems much more fitting for all the ladies now :) I hope...opps I typed Alley...Khaleesi is doing well!
